Mahalo, Jake

The paps caught Jake Gyllenhaal returning to work/workouts yesterday after a weekend escape. But which would you rather see: this?

Or this:

I thought so.

Though he's not looking so sunny, Jake hopefully enjoyed his Hawaiian dip.In more clothed news, Source Code is now available on DVD in the U.S. Still waiting for my copy, but I did enjoy my VOD viewing. Can't wait to hear the commentary.

I prefer wet Jake of course but I don't blame Jake for being miffed at being photographed. I hope managed to have fun over the weekend in Hawaii along with celebrating the wedding. Maggie looks good too, I like her bathing suit.

LOL @ the FB entry.

I hope you have better luck with this DVD Mary, I'm still waiting for my copy.

Also, not sure if anyone has seen the trailer for New Year's Day. I don't know if Jake was ever really even interested in that, but judging form the trailer, he may have dodged a bullet. It looks awful.

evening UV babblers all, Gyllenbabble just came up on my igoogle page, so I came right over...now I need cardiac resuscitation! * big grin*The pics are great...we never see Jake out swimming anymore though I think I know why and I feel for him...anyway love wet Jake and his sister out together. TY:)

Stephen's wife was teaching film at Vassar, has her undergrad from Yale, and a Masters from U of Iowa. She has her own film production company, and she's a documentarian. They met while she was working with him on Grassroots. I think she's 36.

It was nice to see pictures of Jake interacting with his uncles and other family members.

I hadn't noticed her resemblance to Maggie, but she's very pretty. I agree with who ever said those two little boys are hers. They look exactly like her.

LOL! monica, Jake seems to favor the loud print in his bathing trunks. These remind me of the black and white ones he wore in Hawaii a few years ago.

Sorry to spam, but Adam Levine will be on CNN with Piers Morgan one on one at 9:30. (The first half hour is discussion about the debt crisi which frankly I cannot listen to them anymore.) So Adam's on the second half hour if anyone wants to watch it.

SAG actor, chica, etc. did you all order the blueray or the DVD of SC? I'm wondering if the commentaries or special features are different.

boy am i having bad luck now i cant get my dvd player to work and cant get the disc out my sist er said she will come over after work tomorrow and take a look i dont think im ever going to get to watch SC ;0

Here's the trailer for Ides of March. I almost couldn't bear to watch. It looks good but would have looked better with Jake. I don't get the Gosling hype. He sounds stupid, god forgive me. Yes, he was great in Blue Valentine, but I don't reeky buy him here.

Thanks for the links, Monica. Will have to watch the Pena interview tomorrow. It wont lay on my iPad and I don't feel like dragging the laptop out.

I liked the trailer. The film looks good and Ryan looks great. George Clooney looks the same as always.I confess that sometimes I'm a little jealous, because I want Jake was in the same situation as him. In fact, everything that I imagined would happen in the career of Jake after BBM is going on with Ryan Gosling's career.It's all about what you choose along the way and Ryan is choosing the rights films. This is his moment.

Cheer up,ladies,even tho I am also upset Jake isn't in Cloony' new film.He can def do better than Ryan G.I think Ryan G. is very good actor.This year is his hot year, just like Jake when in BBM time.Actually I admire James McAvoy way more than Ryan G., James Franco or Ryan Renolds(pss..)

Sometimes it's frustrate to see Jake having no future project in hand.He is not very productive even after BBM.

I am glad Jake redeemed himself by source code.Now all we can do is waiting his next new project.Sign..Damn you ,Jake.Why pass "Now you can see me"??(just kidding.XD)

I like ryan gosling, but theres something about him that i just can't fully get behind. I agree that he was great in half nelson, but not amazing like everyone made him out to be. I adored him in Lars and the real girl. I loved blue valentine, but felt Michelle had the stronger performance. Ryan just felt like he was playing himself. I could totally see jake in this ides of march role. It's a shame, but hopefully SC will help get him more roles. Like Viv said its ryans hot year, he didn't release any movie for two years back in 08 and 09.

Those wedding pics from the last post are beautiful. It's good to see that Jake is still close to his father. It does look like Jake may have step siblings now, how cool! It also looks like everyone gets a long. I heard someone else say that maggie and stephens new wife looks alike but i never noticed and don't think they do.

"I confess that sometimes I'm a little jealous, because I want Jake was in the same situation as him. In fact, everything that I imagined would happen in the career of Jake after BBM is going on with Ryan Gosling's career"

I often feel the same way, monica. And not just with Ryan.(I'll confess. I've never seen Lars, BV, or The Notebook. I don't mind Ryan, but as the lead, he's not a draw for me.)

I believe in my bones that Jake has a wonderful future ahead of him, and some great work, too. He is respected, and well liked in the industry.(Yes, he's missed out on parts, but maybe he's turned some down, too.)

When I look at the career trajectory of people like Clooney or even Ben Affleck, there are always lulls, or bad movie decisions, or bumps. This is all very survivable. Jake will do fine. There are a lot more good stories to tell.

The pics are a bit nosy but I love them! Jake's trunks are loud but he looks good and fit. Maggie's bathing suit is modest but she it shows off her figure and long legs.

Looking at their expressions, I think the water may have been colder than they thought!

I do see a resemblence to Maggie and Stephen's new wife, she is younger than I thought!!

Looks like i'm not the only one waiting for my SC DVD, I ordered the regular DVD.

I admit that I get jealous if you can call it that when I hear about roles going to actors like Cooper for instance because Jake is a better actor than he is.

I can see Ryan getting the roles, he's "It" at the moment, sort of where Jake was after BBM. He made Jarhead and Zodiac after that and i thought those were great choices, Zodiac was on the critics top ten that year.

There have been some misses but I think that SC may have put him back on track.

I got to watch the Collider interview with Michael Pena. Like, it will be like interesting, you know, to see them both, like interviewed.

Is twitter's new search driving anyone else crazy? In Safari, if you're logged in, the searches come up empty half the time and you can't get more than the first page. Signed out, you also can't go longer than the first page but it at least works.

And it's all languages. Can't figure out how to get back to my English only preference. Not to discriminate - it just clogs up the list with stuff I mostly don't understand!

Jake is the kind of guy who can do a spot-on impression of someone you work with. He plays guitar and has a great voice. Kids and dogs love him. He loves his mom and sister and girlfriend. He's perfect. Too bad he's ugly. ~ Natalie Portman
